You might ask me why I'm doing this?

Well, I can answer that in a very short sentence. Because it is the right thing to do. Wouldn't you want some help if you were in this situation? Wouldn't I? Of course we would! So, I'm doing it because it's the right thing!

Keep reading; follow along; give me your feedback, even if you don't agree; but take a stand! That's what's important here! Take a look at this article in Reason Magazine by Radley Balko; google this "doctor" and see what you find out!

    June 23: Ervin Harris: Jefferson County; Alabama: From our 'Enough to make one weep' department: Enough to make one weep: Yes, his conviction for rape in 1975 has been overturned - along with his 99 year sentence - but only after he had served 42 years in prison - following a recent hearing, which had been focused on modern scientific research regarding human memory and eyewitness misidentification, science that did not exist during Harris' original trial - and during that hearing, eyewitness identification expert Nancy Franklin raised major concerns about the identification process used in the case. Reported by Multimedia Reporter Zoe Blair. (WVTM 13)...During that hearing, eyewitness identification expert Nancy Franklin raised major concerns about the identification process used in the case. The video below talks about Harris' efforts to get his conviction overturned. "I concluded that the eyewitness identifications of Mr. Harris by the victim, as done, were highly unreliable," Franklin testified. "She described a very different person than she identified."
